June 02, 2015/ Anthony Close

With the tailwinds of a red hot downtown real estate market at its back, ONE St. Petersburg has continued to far exceeded expectations.

Since having an official grand opening event in February around 120 units have been reserved, representing sales of over $126 million. Dave Traynor, of Smith & Associates, said about a third of the reservations have come from existing St. Pete residents while another third have come from other areas in Tampa Bay. The remaining third have come from out of area buyers primarily from the Northeast and the Midwest.

Soaring over 450 feet, ONE St. Petersburg will be the tallest building in St. Petersburg and in Pinellas County. The 41-story, 253 unit condo tower, which is expected to break ground in the first quarter of 2016, will be located at 100 First Ave N.
